Heaven Reaching Ivy
“Wasn’t this Lu Xu who I rescued two days ago?”
Two days ago when he was in the city, he saw an seriously injured middle aged man, at that time, a fierce dog was chasing after a little girl, that middle aged man risked his life to save the little girl. Zheng Shiyi felt that this man was good-natured so he brought the man back.
Never had he expected that this man was the wanted criminal that the Heaven Supporting Sect was searching for, Zheng Shiyi immediately started hurriedly walking toward his room.
The direction he was going was not toward the outside of the clan, many of the people who were trying to catch Lu Xu had cast glances of despise toward Zheng Shiyi, they ridiculed. “This guy, not only was he a piece of rubbish, he’s also a coward, he most certainly didn’t dare to catch the wanted criminal with us!”
Zheng Shiyi didn’t bother responding to them, he rushed back into his room, the moment that he opened the door, Lu Xu suddenly stood up from the bed.
Seeing the Zheng Shiyi with a hurried expression, he asked. “Seeing as how frantic you are, you must have found out things about me? Since this was the case, why didn’t you hand me over to them?”
Facing the rewards that the Heaven Supporting Sect was giving, there weren’t anyone who could possibly refuse.
Zheng Shiyi shook his head, he said. “You were in imminent peril yet still tried to save someone, you heart is not evil, although I really wanted to enter the Heaven Supporting Sect, I am not despicable enough to betray others!”
“Haha, who could have thought that I, Lu Xu, lived all my life and, before my death, managed to come upon a youngster of principle like you. Since this was the case, I shall present you with a great opportunity!”
Because Lu Xu was overly excited, he spurted out two mouthful of blood and was only able to stop his coughing through repeatedly swallowing saliva.
“You managed to survive, how did you once again turn into a man who’s about to die?” Zheng Shiyi looked at him in confusion.
Lu Xu explained. “While I was fleeing, my internal organs were burst open by my chasers, to be able to live till now, it’s all because of my will to survive. I do not have much time left, I’ll make the long story short.”
“The thing that I stole was the sect treasure of the Heaven Supporting Sect, it’s called the Most Revered Spiritual Liquid of Rebirth, it was the droplet of a Heavy Reaching Ivy…”
“This Heaven Reaching Ivy plant have existed before the creation of the Heaven Supporting Sect, it was so tall that its tip cannot be seen and is said that to reached all the way to the world of the immortals. However, no one have verified the legend, in the ten million years, in every generation of the Heaven Supporting Sect, there are always strong individuals who wanted to climb the Heavy Reaching Ivy. Unfortunately, they either drop from the plant midway or died atop the plant….”
“The Millennium Spiritual Liquid that dripped from the Heaven Reaching Ivy drips a single drop every thousand years. Other than purifying marrows and opening veins, increasing the speed of cultivation by many times over, improving perception substantially, it also a.s.sist one in breaking through bottlenecks!”
“Only those who managed to become the Heaven Supporting Sect’s Main Sect’s Heavenly Proud Sacred Child were qualified to use the Spiritual Liquid . In all the previous years, the Spiritual Liquid had always been green in color, however, this year it was golden.”
“If one were to drink the liquid directly, not only would one not be able to achieve the proper effect, one would immediately die from it. Thus, it must be placed into the internal organs, right now, I will be placing it into your internal organs!”
Lu Xu placed a bracelet with a dot of golden color in front of Zheng Shiyi, he gestured with hand for a long time.
Soon after, he pointed at Zheng Shiyi’s acupuncture points, his finger was like a knife as it moved through Zheng Shiyi’s body, it was so painful that Zheng Shiyi grimaced in pain.
After Zheng Shiyi’s body were cut open, there appeared a golden mark surrounding his body, protecting it.
Soon after, Lu Xu placed the twelve separated parts of the golden liquid into Zheng Shiyi’s internal organs - five viscera and six bowels - and brain.
“Putting the liquid in the heart will increase the body’s recovery ability. Putting the liquid in the liver will increase detox-ability. Putting the liquid in the lungs will increase breathing ability. Putting it in the brain can increase perception. Putting…”
With everything finished, Zheng Shiyi’s cut opened body returned to its original state as if nothing happened.
Right now, Zheng Shiyi felt that there was a incomparably strong energy within his body, there was something pulsing within his dantian.
That thing was shaped like a transparent seed, it was floating in the middle of his dantian, he was able to clearly perceive that an intense life force was coming from it constantly.
Zheng Shiyi was familiar with that kind of feeling, it was a feeling that he once possessed when he still had his martial soul. “Soul Seed! Could...could it be, I, Zheng Shiyi attained a second martial soul?”
The faces that were once flattering him, after having his martial soul removed, had turned completely fiendish.
Those figures that were once trying to curry favors from him, after having his martial soul removed, had distanced themselves from him.
Those voices that once tried to win favors from him, after having his martial soul removed, had turned into insults and scolds.
Those images continued to appear before his eyes, those words continued to echo in his ears.
Like the sharp blade of a dagger, they had been stabbing his heart incessantly.
He was only thirteen years old now, however, the heavens had played a enormous joke on him before he even reached thirteen.
That genius called Zheng Tianyu had pulled out his G.o.d level martial soul and turned him from a genius into trash.
His haughtiness was grinded flat, his drive was grinded flat, his fighting spirit, however, was not grinded flat. Instead, he became stubborn and unyielding.
He continued to believe firmly that he would once again have a martial soul, once again become the genius and make those that looked down on him, make those that deride him and those who distanced themselves from him regret!
Perhaps the me from before might not even be able to withstand a single blow, but! I will one day become invincible!
He did not expect for this day to arrive so quickly, he unexpectedly once again possessed a martial soul!
He once again attained power that he can rely on!
The joy of gaining back what he had lost, the pa.s.sion brought forth by the Spiritual Liquid fusing with his body, it was as if his body now possess an unlimited amount of power, so much that he must vent his anger right away.
“Cough cough.”
Zheng Shiyi suddenly heared Lu Xu’s coughing sound and recalled that Lu Xu had just helped him cut open his body and put in the Millennium Spiritual Liquid into his body. He must’ve used a lot of the life force he had left.
He turned around, sure enough, Lu Xu appeared a lot more aged than before. Unknown why, his body was shaking.
“Former…” Zheng Shiyi was about to say something but Lu Xu interrupted him. “I don’t have much time left, after I depart from this world, you must help me do two things!”
Without speaking, Zheng Shiyi nodded his head.
With a coa.r.s.e voice, Lu Xu said. “First, our sect, although extinguished, but as far as I know, our sect leader’s son luckily escaped.”
“If you were to find him, he will be able to help you find the inheritance that our sect left behind.”
“It would allow you to rapidly gain the ability to contend against the Heaven Supporting Sect. However, if you were to be unable to find him, then simply forget it.”
“I originally wanted to teach you a bit of our sect’s techniques, it’s just that I feared that if you were to use them, you’ll be found out by others and attract needless troubles.”
Zheng Shiyi nodded his head. He asked. “What is the second thing?”
“The second thing.” Lu Xu stroked his lower jaw, he waved at Zheng Shiyi. “I don’t have much time left, carry me to the river bank, we will talk while we walk.”
Zheng Shiyi nodded. He began to carry Lu Xu over his back and began to walk toward the direction river pointed out by him.
Only when they arrived by the river bed did Lu Xu started to say. “Having lived, one would desire to leave something in this world. The second thing that I wanted from you was, after I died, create a clay image of me and make me into a G.o.d statue, then set up a small temple for me so that I can be enshrined and worshipped by others in there. Maybe I could be reborn through this…”
He continued as he laid on a little lousy house by the river bank.
However, at the instant when he stretch his hands out, he suddenly saw something familiar in the horizon that the Heaven Supporting Sect was located at, that astonishing thing was the Heaven Reaching Ivy!
The further up one looked, the more clouds there are, it was impossible to see the tip.
Using immense effort, he opened his eyes widely, in that split second, he saw the clouds, as if being dispersed by the wind, were slowly separating. A strain of golden ray appeared through the clouds that were being pushed aside.
As the golden ray continued to disperse, he clearly saw that what was giving off the golden rays were unexpectedly a monkey!
Within the heavens….. was such a money! A ma.s.sive monkey! Even the sun and the moon could be grasped by him!
It had golden hair, the intensity of the golden hair was even more dazzling than gold!
The monkey that was entwined by the Heaven Reaching Ivy were struggling unceasingly.
Every time he struggled, he would jolt the heavens as if it was about to fall. He would create deep blue lightings that continued to pour down to the ground.
His shrieks were world shaking, every time he howled, countless stars would shake repeatedly.
His movement could collapse the heavens, his roars could move the sun and moon!
However, even though this was the case, he was still unable to break free from the Heaven Reaching Ivy. The harder he struggled, the tighter the Heaven Reaching Ivy binded him.
One could faintly see the location where he was bound at were bleeding unceasingly. The blood wasn’t bright red, instead, it was golden!
The golden liquid was even more dazzling than his hair.
They followed the branches and tendrils of the Heaven Reaching Ivy and slowly come together, finally, they when they are a.s.sembled to a certain degree, “Pata!”, a single droplet dripped down.
“That is…. that is….”
The droplet of golden liquid dripping down caused Lu Xu to suddenly see the light, he suddenly shrieked. As his shriek echoed, he slowly stopped breathing.
Zheng Shiyi looked toward the direction that he pointed toward, he heard the shriek and thought that something had happened. He turned around to look at Lu Xu.
At this moment, Lu Xu was pointing toward the horizon, his face was full of excitement, but unfortunately, he no longer breaths.
Zheng Shiyi looked toward the horizon that he pointed; there was nothing there.
After shaking his head, Zheng Shiyi buried him at where he pointed.
Toward the pitch-black night, Zheng Shiyi held his fist, his internal organs were loaded with the Spiritual Liquid and his body have become flooded with robust energy.
This was the best time for him to cultivate, he must be sure to grasp this opportunity.
He sat cross-legged and began practicing. Continuous spiritual qi were flowing out from his internal organs and entering his veins, bones, and each and every cell in his body.
He could clearly perceive that under the influence of the spiritual qi, his veins, bones, channels, and heart were currently undergoing an earth shattering change. His channels grew both wider and tougher. His heartbeat sounded as powerful as a small drum. His surging blood were like a river moving through his body incessantly.
The spiritual qi within the air orbited him and entered his body. The black filth followed his sweats out his body.
In his dantian was a bowl sized spinning plate, on top of the spinning plate was a spiritual disk created by the gathering of spiritual qi.
Having a spiritual disk signifies the first stage of the qi disc realm. Having two signals the second stage, in a similar fashion, this continued until the ninth stage qi disc realm.
Reaching the peak of the ninth stage qi disc realm and then breaking through would bring one to the qi spring realm!
Ever since his martial soul was taken away, the spiritual qi that he can gather on the disc were no longer able to a.s.semble.
However, it was different this time, this time. there were more and more qi being gathered in the plate and a.s.sembling into the disc!
